Photoshop :: Newbie Gradient Quesiton

Aug 18, 2004

I completed a tutorial last night about how to make a "Spirograph" effect using multiple circles.

I've got a white background but I want a color gradient to appear in the stroke of my merged layers.

Simplified- I want the stroke to be a light color at the middle of my spirograph and then the outer areas to be darker.

Photoshop :: Newbie Question On Color/contrast

Jul 14, 2009

Hi I placed some advertisments into a black-and-white (greyscale) newspaper. The ads were previously scanned images and I received them as high-resolution .JPG's. I don't have access to the original files. When they printed, some of the ads were not as vivid as I wanted. I opened them up in Photoshop and found out that the blacks are not 100% black. Some were 90%, some as low as 40%. They looked fine on my monitor and on the laser printer proofs, but on newsprint they were not dark enough. I want to increase the blacks to 100%. I'm a Photoshop newbie, so the only solution I can come up with is to open each of these ads and use the curves tool to manually pull all of the blacks up to 100% while leaving the white part of the spectrum alone. I'm not sure I'm using the curves tool correctly. Not to belabor the point, but here some screen shots of before and after. BEFORE:  AFTER:If you look carefully, you can see the curves. Bassically I pulled up all of the curve to 100 percent black and just left the leftmost point where it is(which I assume is the white part of the spectrum). Is this the best approach for doing what I want to do? Thanks.

Photoshop :: Possible To Create Gradient Similar To Radial Gradient

Jan 17, 2013

Is it possible to create a gradient similar to radial gradient, except that the shape is other than circular? This image would be the starting point, but I would like the white part fading to black to be another shape (say, a rectangle, a banana, etc.).

Photoshop :: Gradient Editor Doesn't Load Gradient In CS6

Jul 9, 2012

I've been experiencing problems with the Gradient editor since I got PS and the problem is that whenever I create a gradient through the gradient editor and then load it, it does load it and instead just duplicates the ones that already exist.
 
I save all gradients at:
 
C:UsersRHAppDataRoamingAdobeAdobe Photoshop CS6PresetsGradients
 
However it does (mostly) work when I import pre-made (from web) Gradients.
 
I don't know why this happens but it also did the same thing when I had CS5.5!

Illustrator :: Drag Global Color Swatches From Color Panel To Gradient Stops In Gradient Panel

Aug 28, 2012

I have CS5. The bugs and broken features in AICS6, make it unusable in my workflow.
 
I am specifically concerned about the inability to drag global color swatches from the color panel to Gradient stops in the Gradient Panel. I use this method to update a gradient color because I find it MUCH faster than option-dragging to duplicate a stop color, then deleting the unused stop. Since I do this constantly, I find using CS6 very tedious.

Photoshop :: 2D Gradient

Dec 17, 2005

Im looking for the name of a technique, tool, or plugin that will enable me to fade one image into another. I have two images, one of a day sky, one of a night sky, that I'm merging together, similar to this:

999887767788999
999887767788999


222334454433222
222334454433222

I need the 9 faded into the 2, the 8 faded into the 3, etc. I would use a Gradient Fill but it simply fills all the white space with a gradient from 9 to 2. Short of selecting a space 1 pixel wide hundreds and hundreds of times, and then filling with a gradient, is there something that will let me use a 2D gradient, as it were?

Photoshop :: Gradient ?

Sep 1, 2006

The design I’m attempting will use two love hearts instead of two circles. The problem is that this tutorial shows you how to create that gradient look by using the marquee tool to draw in the circles. When I use the shape tool and add in two hearts I can't use the gradient tool to create the same effect:

(Replace the circles for hearts)

Photoshop :: CS6 Gradient Overlay Bug

Jun 3, 2013

I have found what I can only assume is a bug. I have a PSD file that when opened in CS5 looks as it should. When I open it in CS6 any shape with a gradient overlay displays as black. When I choose Save for Web it displays correctly in the save window, but the file displays the shapes as black in the regular Photoshop view.

Photoshop :: Do Not Want Any Transparency Within Gradient

Sep 27, 2013

I want to make a gradient go from light blue to dark blue so I adjust the lower first stop to light blue and the second lower stop to dark blue.
 
1. I do not want any transparency within the gradient, so do I just leave the stops on top in their default locations on the ends?
 
2. Any example of how transparency in a gradient can be used?

Photoshop :: Gradient Around A Path?

Jan 14, 2013

Is it possible to make a gradient over a defined path? For example from one end of an and-sign & to the other so that one is absolute dark and the other one white and so that this gradient is as if you would draw an and-sign with a pen constantly raising pressure on the paper so that it gets darker and darker?

It is for a logo in which one side should be really dark and the other one white.

Photoshop :: Gradient Overlay

Jun 28, 2012

I used to use Ps normally, but since I've reinstalled my Windows recently so I had to reinstall Ps as well. However, when I used Gradient Overlay, it didn't work out correctly as it's supposed to do: no matter how I configured the option, it just filled a solid color instead of a gradient (as number 1 in picture). When I clicked reverse, it filled with the other solid color. Number 2 I used Gradient Tools to make it easier to compare.

Photoshop :: Recolor A GIF With A Gradient

Jan 4, 2009

I am trying to recolor a GIF with a gradient.

Most of the GIF is a solid color that I want to change from one color to another. I know the before background color (in this case blue) and after background color (in this case green). However, there are many shades of varation in the gradient that I hope can switch from a shade of blue to a shade of green automatically.

I've played with the Image > Adjust > Replace Color options, but can't seem to figure out how to exactly change the background color from the old one to the exact new one that I want.
